This is the first term for Mr Raymond (Mario) Soki who is the TSRA Member for Dauan Island. During his term with the TSRA, Mr Soki will encourage major improvements in economic development and foster an increased focus on social issues and career pathways.

Mr Soki believes in educating, mentoring, and monitoring youth to ensure that their sense of respect and pride in their culture is not diminished by a diversifying population. Mr Soki wants more resources channelled into capacity building and training for community members so that they better understand government processes and can reap the benefits of a stronger economic base.
